hello everyone
i finally got around to do a star test last night
found a reasonable star not to bright not to faint (dont ask what mag
)
I used a 9mm 1.25 inch GSO (is this ep ok to use ?)
i had a look at the star iether side of the focus the only thing i could see was no rings what it looked like was a slide moving amoeba under a microscope
plus i had the scope outside for at least an hour or more before trying the test
so cooling not a problem ?
also stuck in the 2x 2" barlow saw the same thing
must admit using the same ep setup had a look at the moon wow factor real close and moving quick
(out of fov)
had a look at jupiter as well the tails on the moons seem to have gone
iam still getting cross hairs thought so whether this is still a cooling problem or i dont know
those four spikes ive never seen before until very recently, before it got collimated the time before i removed the mirrors
it looks like four light streaks though could be it hasnt cooled down enough
ill keep an eye out for them next time i can go out
any hints ?
